Asparagus in a bag cake

Heading North and I'm bearing gifts even though it is my birthday (yes, I am an April fool). I have baked up my favourite cake - Coconut- recipe from the Barefoot Contessa. It is a very rich cake so I don't think we are going to need cream cheese icing.And for the little princess I sewed up a litttle tote from Lexie Barnes' book Sew what! Bags. I made the handles a bit too wide but it was very quick to make and I just might have to make a few more in different sizes.With asparagus in season, I could eat frittatta every night. Even better is roasting the spears for ten minutes in a very hot oven, use your fingers and enjoy.
